It is raining and it is cold, so today we are inside and not leaving the jurisdiction of the ducted heating!

Had a chance to download some photos from the previous month or so, and now is a good time to get them on here. In no particular order….

This is Holly with a Bronze statue that Justin’s Mum has been making this term in a Uni Sculpture course. It is Holly with a ballerina dress on, sitting on a big ball. Quite amazing really, it is very intricate and detailed and both Holly and Maureen are VERY proud of it.

A few zoo piccys now. We went with Tania and Bronte last Friday and we had a really lovely day. Canberra Zoo is certainly no Taronga or Werribee, but it has some interesting features and it is not very busy in term time. Meg loved this Big Cat lounging right near the glass.

The kids have had great enjoyment with the rollerskates we gave them for Christmas and now dress up like Jane Torvill to create the mood. This is Bronte demonstrating a classic move!

And Meg this morning showing me how fast she can go (on the carpet!). This has chopped her head off but if you click on the pic it will enlarge.

Amy is just growing up before our eyes. She is talking a lot and understands everything. She has favourite books that she will hans to you and then climb up onto your lap for commencement of reading. If I try to change to a new book, she gets mad! This is her with her “photo” smile. Isn’t she cute. Just love her to bits.

And her she is doing her “homeboy” look. She claps her hands and then points and with this hat that she adores it looked so hilarious.

We had Andrew for a sleepover a few weeks ago now and Justin was beside himself to have another boy in the house. Andrew is the most delightful little guy with a permanent smile on his face and unwaivering devotion to Jess. This is them with a surprise block of choc that Justin bought home.

At school the girls had a Pajama Day which went down a real treat. This is them ready for school on that day!

And Jess here is the classiest chick at possums. She loves to look good!

How is this for lazy…I was to do a run on Monday but I slept in! We went over the road for dinner and fireworksSunday Night, had too many wines and didn’t get up the next day for the race. Bad Fran!! But now I am back on the straight and narrow and ran in the rain today to prove my commitment. Mad Fran!!

So that is about it. The weeks seem to be getting busier and I have been doing quite a bit of work at the hospital. The extra pay is great given that it takes about $90 to fill my car with petrol these days – ouch.

Well done if you have made it to the end here. Have a lovely day. 🙂
